A true classic indeed, and one of the best mice ever made at least when
it comes to durability - mine is about 10 years old and still working
just fine. I'm using it now since both of my newer mice died after less
than a year of use. All the maintenance it needs is taking the ball out
once a year or so and removing the cat hairs that have accumulated. :-)
